    Ignore the terrorist invasion, the rapists, and the cartel robbery gangs. Focus on the weather.
  • Imagine, if you will, a world where the government has to tell you it's hot outside. Sigh.

    I swear we get dumber by the minute
  • @Babybubdo
    Newsflash: It gets hot during the summer.
  • SMH People can't get to a cool place because they can't afford gas. It's too expensive to turn on their air conditioners.

    The last half of this briefing fell out of her mouth like bull shit. Act like people forget just 4 years ago we could afford housing, gas, food, utilities and even have some disposable income to bring our kids some place special. That coming from well below the poverty line. Now we can’t afford to eat every day.
  • "Quick, turn off your air conditioners, save the climate!!"
  • Tends to happen around this time of year.... Drink water, the end.
  • Thanks, I’ll be working outside anyway. I thought the White House would talk about fixing inflation or the border.
  • @marcg1964

  • I live in the elderly heat capital of the country in Phoenix. People are not dropping dead. Its heat humans can handle.
  • WHY DO YOU LET SCE shut OFF OUR ELECTRICITY IN THE SUMMER IN CA DESERT! This is DANGER FOR ELDERLY LIKE ME
  • been high 90s with a feels like 105 here in southwest Florida for two months...this is not news...Its SUMMER...the natives know, it gets warmer...do outside chores in the morning, while drinking lots of water...then, around 1 slap yourself into a rocking chair on the porch with an adult beverage and watch the chickens scratch around...It is not news worthy...or even press confrence worthy
  • They should have warned people abbout the extreme stupidity of thier adminustration while they were handing out warnings.
